I launched at 6 am this morning to harass Utah Lake once again. The water temp was a nice 77 degrees. I needed to break in the new breathable waders that I had gotten from Cabelas yesterday. Big mistake.
It was hot and kinda muggy today. Not East Texas/West Lousiana muggy but muggy for Utah. I should have just gone out wearing swimming trunks instead. As I kicked back into the harbor covered in sweat, I started wondering what water temp would be good to just go out in trunks instead of waders.
Do yall have a preference? I'm thinking 70 degrees and warmer ought to be okay but since I'm a newbie, I'm not positive. I'm also well insulated so that will probably be a factor. It may be one of those things I just need to go out and try.
